It is 11:00pm and just completed a very forced Mix Tape. Unfortunately, I didn't get the full hour in today mainly because of time and energy. After working all day, coming home and taking care of house hold stuff and driving youngsters here and there, I finally mustered up enough energy to at least roll out the Mat. I decided to throw on Mix Tape because I love how that workout takes bits and pieces from all of our favorite workouts.
At first, I was a little upset when the counter said that it was only 35 minutes. At the beginning of the workout I figured that I would probably do a Fat Burner, Energy, or even Red Hot Core after I was through with Mix Tape. Well, it didn't turn out as planned. Mix tape literally kicked my ass. Probably because of my state of energy going into the workout. However, I know my heart rate was where it should be and I was dripping in sweat by the middle of the workout. I did notice and have noticed that when my energy level is down, so is my balance. I could barely get into broken hood ornament which has been one of my specialties from the beginning. Having said all that, I am happy that I did not waste the day and already lose my challenge on the 2nd day. Day 3 will be a ton better, I guarantee.
As far as my diet today went, I am very proud of it. I made two smoothies for work both consisting of almond milk, frozen berries, a ton of spinach and some all natural peanut butter. They aren't as filling when you don't put protein powder into the mix, but they do just fine for now. I drank a ton of water today and am fighting the urge to eat at all right now before bed. But I know my body needs nutrients so I will most likely make a light shake before bed.
All in all, day two went well. I felt great this morning and even felt leaner and tighter. I don't get too sore with this program, which is great. However, I can say that I feel it the next day.
Tomorrow will be day 3 and I will definitely be banging out either Diamond Cutter or Double Black Diamond.
Until tomorrow,
Be well & God Bless,
-Steve
